The document discusses several topics related to integrating information and communication technology (ICT) into schools, including:
1) The need for teacher training to develop ICT skills and the use of virtual learning environments.
2) Keywords around ICT in schools like networking, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and helping students combat information overload.
3) ICT becoming a personal tool for students with more project-based and problem-oriented learning and changing teacher roles.
4) New ways of organizing education and learning with more flexible schedules, groupings, and use of teachers and ICT support.

12. ICT to become a personal tool for the student
◦ Personal PC, connected all the time.
◦ More problem orientation /project organised
◦ New teacher roles – coach, facilitator, teamwork-
Together with old roles
New ways to organise education and learning
◦ Flexible organisation of lessons day/week/year
◦ Flexible ”classes”
◦ Flexible use of teacher’s
◦ Flexible teacher/ICT support
13. Municipalities own the schools. They are
responsible within the regulations in the law.
ICT is not a specific subject in the curriculum
The national law : ICT must be integrated in all
subject areas - where relevant
National - binding - goals for all subject areas
from 2005.
National guidance for all subject areas since ?
Not a specific guidance for ICT goals (- yet),
but extracted in Junior pc- driving license from
the relevant subject areas.
14. ITIF ( ICT in grades 1-10) – government
programme 2004 – 2007/8
Computers etc.
Digital content – on-line, web based
Development of courses for in-service
training
Knowledge sharing – best practise
Emphasis on an early start
Holistic approach
15. ITIF
To enhance the quality of education in general
by effective use of computers from an early
stage.
To help children to develop literacy and
numeracy skills more rapidly in order to reduce
percentage of school leavers with substantial
reading disabilities.
To offer the (small) percentage of children with
no computer access at home the possibility in
their school.
16. Program runs 2005, 2006, 2007
Computers to be placed in grade 3 classrooms or in the
vicinity
Municipalities must match the sum of money from
government to purchase computers/whiteboards. These
computers are reserved for education, but can be placed
anywhere in their schools.
”Take it- or leave” it programme. No transfer of quota from
one year to the next.
2005 : 87% applied, 2006: 93 %, 2007: 98,5%

Wireless access
Increasing purchase of interactive whiteboards
21. The ”school of tomorrow”?
Will soon be the school of
today ”virtual school”
”Brick and
mortar
school”
Education
• organisation
• pedagogy
22. •ICT-based learning ressources (”books”)
•Universes for different learner groups on
the EMU(national website for learning)
•The National Repository
•E- museum
•LMS-LCMS
23. Schools- the virtual
layer
• ICT-based learning resources (”books”)
•Universes for different learner groups on
the EMU (national website for learning)
•The National Repository
•E- museum
•LMS-LCMS
25. The school as an organisation has integrated ICT both
organisational and in their teaching and learning
All teachers use ICT- both for organisational and
pedagogical purposes
Pupils and parents have access to all school resources –
net based from home - and can collaborate and
communicate from home, libraries with teachers, other
students etc.
26. On-line access to school resources
Interactive communication and collaboration
Teachers to put links, examples, demonstrations in subject
folders
Teachers to comment assignments on-line – both when they
are finished and on the way .
Pupils to communicate and collaborate with other pupils
Results shown in each child’s portfolio
Teachers to use learning objects from on-line repositories
when they prepare lessons
Re-use of pedagogical data in school administration – and
vice-versa
27. There is no strong correlation between the span of
years the system has been used and the intensity of
use.
Strong evidence that with good management
the full implementation period is 3 - 4 years
28. Applications of ICT in every aspect of school life
• Use of computers at exams - in primary and secondary
education. Legal right for students in upper secondary education.
• Learning Content Management System – almost 100% coverage
in public schools and colleges (grades 1-12). Web-based.
Accessible from home as well (teachers, students, parents)
• ICT based exams (with full access to the Internet) in the pipe-
line. Programme started 2007
• ICT based adaptive tests in primary and lower secondary school
• E-learning programs both for distance learning and classroom
29. The traditional brick and mortar school will still
be there
Aged divided class concept will still be
standard – but combined with cross age/cross
curricular elements
Majority of lessons will still be 1 teacher/1
class /1 subject area– but combined with
group based/cross-curricular/project –
oriented work and a group of teachers in
collaboration.
Use of LCMS still primarily for organisational
purposes – but pedagogical use increasing
(class and pupil portfolios), use of L.O’s could
be better.
Special needs education will be dramatically
changed.
30. ICT leadership in schools
Effective integration of ICT in all subject area where
relevant
ICT qualified trainers of trainers
How to move the 20% schools that lack behind in e-
readiness
Web- literacy skills both teachers and learners
Consequence of web 2.0 for education
